3 Catabolic Pathways and Production of ATP The breakdown of organic molecules is exergonic Fermentation is a partial degradation of sugars that occurs without O 2 Aerobic respiration consumes organic molecules and O 2 and yields ATP Anaerobic respiration is similar to aerobic respiration but consumes compounds other than O 2 (1)

4 Cellular respiration includes both aerobic and anaerobic respiration but is often used to refer to aerobic respiration Although carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are all consumed as fuel, it is helpful to trace cellular respiration with the sugar glucose C 6 H 12 O O 2 6 CO H 2 O + Energy (ATP + heat) (2)

5 The Principle of Redox Chemical reactions that transfer electrons between reactants are called oxidation-reduction reactions, or redox reactions In oxidation, a substance loses electrons, or is oxidized In reduction, a substance gains electrons, or is reduced (the amount of positive charge is reduced) (3)

6 The electron donor is called the reducing agent The electron receptor is called the oxidizing agent Some redox reactions do not transfer electrons but change the electron sharing in covalent bonds Compounds losing electrons lose energy. (5)

9 Stepwise Energy Harvest via NAD + and the Electron Transport Chain In cellular respiration, glucose and other organic molecules are broken down in a series of steps Electrons from organic compounds are usually first transferred to NAD +, a coenzyme As an electron acceptor, NAD + functions as an oxidizing agent during cellular respiration Each NADH (the reduced form of NAD + ) represents stored energy that is tapped to synthesize ATP (6) (7 on own)

11 NADH passes the electrons to the electron transport chain Unlike an uncontrolled reaction, the electron transport chain passes electrons in a series of steps instead of one explosive reaction Eukaryotes mitochondria and prokaryotes use the plasma membrane. O 2 pulls electrons down the chain in an energyyielding tumble The energy yielded is used to regenerate ATP (9-11)

12 The Stages of Cellular Respiration: A Preview Harvesting of energy from glucose has three stages Glycolysis (breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate) The citric acid cycle (completes the breakdown of glucose) ETC or Oxidative phosphorylation (accounts for most of the ATP synthesis)

14 The process that generates most of the ATP is called oxidative phosphorylation because it is powered by redox reactions (14) BioFlix: Cellular Respiration

15 Oxidative phosphorylation accounts for almost 90% of the ATP generated by cellular respiration A smaller amount of ATP is formed in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle by substrate-level phosphorylation For each molecule of glucose degraded to CO 2 and water by respiration, the cell makes up to 32 molecules of ATP

21 The Citric Acid Cycle The citric acid cycle, also called the Krebs cycle, completes the break down of pyruvate to CO 2 The cycle oxidizes organic fuel derived from pyruvate, generating 1 ATP, 3 NADH, and 1 FADH 2 per turn

22 The citric acid cycle has eight steps, each catalyzed by a specific enzyme The acetyl group of acetyl CoA joins the cycle by combining with oxaloacetate, forming citrate The next seven steps decompose the citrate back to oxaloacetate, making the process a cycle The NADH and FADH 2 produced by the cycle relay electrons extracted from food to the electron transport chain

27 Chemiosmosis: The Energy-Coupling Mechanism Electron transfer in the electron transport chain causes proteins to pump H + from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space H + then moves back across the membrane, passing through the proton, ATP synthase ATP synthase uses the exergonic flow of H + to drive phosphorylation of ATP This is an example of chemiosmosis, the use of energy in a H + gradient to drive cellular work (30)

28 The energy stored in a H + gradient across a membrane couples the redox reactions of the electron transport chain to ATP synthesis The H + gradient is referred to as a protonmotive force, emphasizing its capacity to do work (32)

31 Concept 9.5: Fermentation and anaerobic respiration enable cells to produce ATP without the use of oxygen Most cellular respiration requires O 2 to produce ATP Without O 2, the electron transport chain will cease to operate In that case, glycolysis couples with fermentation or anaerobic respiration to produce ATP (37)

32 Comparing Fermentation with Anaerobic and Aerobic Respiration All use glycolysis (net ATP =2) to oxidize glucose and harvest chemical energy of food In all three, NAD + is the oxidizing agent that accepts electrons during glycolysis The processes have different final electron acceptors: an organic molecule (such as pyruvate or acetaldehyde) in fermentation and O 2 in cellular respiration Cellular respiration produces 36 ATP per glucose molecule; fermentation produces 2 ATP per glucose molecule (38)

33 Types of Fermentation Fermentation consists of glycolysis plus reactions that regenerate NAD +, which can be reused by glycolysis Two common types are alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation

35 Obligate anaerobes carry out fermentation or anaerobic respiration and cannot survive in the presence of O 2 Yeast and many bacteria are facultative anaerobes, meaning that they can survive using either fermentation or cellular respiration In a facultative anaerobe, pyruvate is a fork in the metabolic road that leads to two alternative catabolic routes

37 Concept 9.6: Glycolysis and the citric acid cycle connect to many other metabolic pathways Gycolysis and the citric acid cycle are major intersections to various catabolic and anabolic pathways

38 The Versatility of Catabolism Catabolic pathways funnel electrons from many kinds of organic molecules into cellular respiration Glycolysis accepts a wide range of carbohydrates Proteins must be digested to amino acids; amino groups can feed glycolysis or the citric acid cycle

40 Regulation of Cellular Respiration via Feedback Mechanisms Feedback inhibition is the most common mechanism for control If ATP concentration begins to drop, respiration speeds up; when there is plenty of ATP, respiration slows down Control of catabolism is based mainly on regulating the activity of enzymes at strategic points in the catabolic pathway
